About Rochester Jewels

Rochester Jewels Inc. is a not-for-profit mentoring organization based in Rochester, NY. Our mission is to provide mentoring services for girls in grades 4th-12th in the Rochester. NY area to help them grow, learn, and become successful young ladies with meaningful and productive lives. We offer a growth and learning environment where the girls receive guidance from adult women mentors.

The program currently runs from September to June, concurrently with the school year. We meet weekly for an hour and a half in a very relaxed environment, classified by grade level. The curriculum is tailored by grade level. There are two adult mentors that lead each section. Our Mentors are volunteers, required to attend mentor training, and pass a mandatory background check. It is crucial that the mentor understand the social, psychological, educational, and physical demands that our girls face. November is designated as community give back.
